京都橘高校吹奏楽部　大手筋商店街パレード　Kyoto Tachibana SHS Band 

The band always has the most Fun and Humor. (Even when the drum line instigates 😂) Great times!

marching percussions: not today bitc-

💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯precisely!!

im in my school marching band, and its already hard to play my instrument while marching, let alone dancing. 🥲

I've been in a school corps/band, our school has not attempted dancing while marching, so by the sight of this I'm just really impressed. I'm just woahh that must have taken a lot of practising. as a former clarinet player I can for sure say that they're way better.

99% of them are girls and it's the senior band so they're chosen from just 25% of the school.

Kyoto Tachibana High School is not a school specializing in music, but a normal three-year private high school (aged 16-18). The brass band club is an after-school club activity that any student can join. 京都橘高等学校は、音楽に特化した学校ではなく普通の3年制私立高等学校(年齢は16歳～18歳)です。吹奏楽部は、学生なら誰でも入部できる放課後に活動するクラブ活動です。

its Asia. what do you expect?

That's Japan for you. They have a belief that you choose the path you want to pursue and that becomes the one and only focus in your life and you need to honor the art of it by achieving as close to perfection as possible

One of them even does all this on one leg.

one snare but es she is good

She was right in the pocket the whole time. Absolute groove on her.

114th class section leader Comare is a powerhouse. Because there were no percussionists in 113th class, Comare has the unique distinction of being in charge of drums in both her second and third years. (For a short time at the start of school year, before 115th percussionists were trained up, it was only Comare and Chippi.) As section leader, she guided woodwind, brass, and percussion. Although her easy confidence and solid performances don't show it, she has stated in interviews that she felt a large gap between her own skills and that of her 112th class senpai. And she felt the weight of responsibility upon her. Chippi may be more well known for her exuberance, but Comare deserves a lot of respect for maintaining the quality of the percussion section.

“almost cried “……I literally cried ❤

Playing flute while dancing while smiling and while obviously having a great time - and making everyone else happy - sorry to all the other musicians - but I was a flute player in a parade band - and later a dancer in a parade band - so ...

8:07 I'm sure you've found out by now if you watched enough KT SHS. However, if you haven't, the flutist Kurara on the far right is doing all this with a prosthetic left leg.

I was in the U of O band also, 1964 - 1967. We were not even close to this level of performance.

Well... actually their nickname is Orange devils .... not pumpkin.

I made a similar comment on another performance where she was playing the conga drum. And, she is super cute!

@@user-wh8bl1fk4h is she going out of her way to pick the heaviest things possible??

@@adifriedman6596 Raicha also plays the quad drums in other performances. Like Chippi, she has an outstanding personality.

@@user-wh8bl1fk4h how do you know their names?

i can't imagine bouncing around like that while playing it perfectly. she's basically hitting several small moving targets and never missing.

I hear that students who were in the brass band clubs of many junior high schools near Kyoto Tachibana High School admire this band and enroll at Kyoto Tachibana High School to join this band. Therefore, many members have experience playing brass bands.

What you see here is due to Japanese family and school culture. Learning a musical instrumental has been a popular early childhood activity that Japanese parents provide their children. Chippi, the xylophone player, for example, has played piano singe age 3. As for school, all Japanese children participate in an after-school club activity of their choosing from elementary school through high school. Popular club activities are baseball, volleyball, calligraphy, and marching band. Although KT SHS has garnered a lot of international fame, most Japanese junior and senior high schools field very respectable bands. Matsue CHS, Seika GHS, Mito GHS, Toho, Waseda Setsuryo, and Izumo BHS are just a few that you can find on YT.

When asked what was their most challenging parade, most band members during this time point to Garasha Festival 2016. That was an hour-long route that they had not prepared for because the parade route changed at the last minute. So they had to perform their normal 22-25 minute set roughly three times in succession. While 2018 Rose was longer in duration, the Marching Composition Staff had arranged their set to account for the duration, interspersing low intensity musical pieces in between their signature numbers.

Japan has a very admirable and interesting culture

Same ! Amazing quality of work, impressive

Me to

It's almost like Japan has their education system be one of their top priorities.

Just goes to show what an involved Band Director is capable of. My marching band admired our instructors greatly for all the dedication they showed in getting us a gig at Disneyworld.

I couldn't agree more. My high school band never lost a competition and for a high school band was exceptionally good, and we knew it. Now I'm not so sure. These girls, for the most part, could kick virtually any American band's butt! Shocking how good they are!!!

They have to play and dance at the same time!!! Really wonderful!!

Guys, you ain't seen nothin' yet. Watch their charity concert at Kennedy HighSchool. I had the opportunity to watch them live. No equipment can capture the electrifying presence of these kids.

I think i caught one of the crowd actually smiling, must be a tourist !!

It’s them Asian genetics tho

Chippi is a KT SHS fan favorite for her exuberance and her ever-present smile. She now performs with other KT SHS alumni in the musical group O-Vils.

Lol it sucks. I play sousaphone and your arm goes numb

VAL13C I carry the 3rd bass drum as smol skinny 102 pounds Asian and it’s my absolute misery

Oh uh Okay .. And that is why I always support and cheer those kids/people in marching band, for their hard dedicating work. Plus, they’re always some respectable types on those marching bands. Always good hearted kids or adults that do this.

MONKEYASSASS1N1 ..Sousaphone?? I’m gonna have to Google that.

Lol

Why does it look to me like it’s only a bandaged leg (a normal one at that ~~~).

It's just a natural skin color light flexible knee brace (not those thick heavy types of knee braces)

@@naigino1 It's not a knee brace. It is a prosthetic leg.

My grandfather had a prosthetic leg like that. I think his leg was cut off halfway or 2/3 up the calf. I'm very impressed she can skip on it. The leg is smaller than her other one and she is not pointing her toes or moving ankle when others are so I very much doubt it's a knee brace.

Where about?..I didn't notice🙂

Thank you for pointing her out. They make look so easy. We know it takes hours of grueling practice and dedication to give us such a super performance.❤️🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

It's not a fake, that young student really is very impressive and famous. She was in the Rose Parade and completed it. Five and a half miles. Get your head round that.

@@Guard-Reg They aren't insulting her, they are pointing out how great her performance was especially with the PROSTHETIC or FAKE leg. Get your head around that.

Welcome on board, but You should stop watching their videos right now otherwise you will be like me. I am continuously watching Tachibana’s performance for three days in row without break and still feel thirsty to find another video. It is very dangerous to be a fan of Tachibana❤😊🎉

Thank you very good

sabia que tinha reconhecido a última, só não lembrava o nome, valeu!

THANK YOU!!!!

Yep. Every brass players there play better than highly selected US regional orchestra brass section, let alone some average high school band brass. Massive difference in dedication and discipline.

Dude? Why comparing? Just appreciate both

@@douglas2085 Why does it bother you that someone compared a very common comparison you hear about? Why not take it from your own words and appreciate that they are better and MUCH MORE well disciplined, I mean honestly we're talking about "America" one of the least disciplined/more "up in your face" nation, the reputation isn't exactly "respectable" and as one (and many others) from America, it's just nice to see how well and better another country can be, inspirational if not, so comparison is actually good than being a blind eye to the lesser that we are (when it comes to certain things) compared to what we can achieve (seeing from others) and can improve on.

@@noctis6826 did you know that Japan has one of the highest suicide rates because of this culture of perfection? One simply cannot judge any individual because it's impossible to know his her life story.

i think it's the educational values in Japan, honestly. education is *everything* there, and because of that, discipline and adaptability are skills that are required to succeed. you also have to be driven, and they instill these values into their students at a very young age. in America, there's a frighteningly large amount of students who put in minimal effort, and some students just stop altogether, or even worse they just drop out. there's also a lack of respect and discipline in American education. I'm sure American children could have very promising results as well but they're lacking all of those things and lacking good instructors as well

It's the reed instruments that get me. You've literally got the mouth peace between your teeth. How are they not knocking their own teeth out every time they jump?

And HOW did they practice the steps? Do you think they just marched round and round an athletics track?!

yeah, they are definitely unbelievable. On top of playing their instruments perfectly without music sheets, they have to memorize their choreography as well while bouncing all around. Really impressive.

my exact thoughts

Exactly - don’t confuse “looking happy” with “being happy” . They’re performing and doing so is part of it.

Me too

How is it even possible that I have 456 likes :/

No the marching band is definitely doing more work. The walked for that long and where blowing into and holding instruments and dancing that’s way more work. The camera could have just been an iPhone on a handheld tripod.

@@Kaodusanya nobody said 'more work' except you

@@Kaodusanya I don't think that this person meant that one was more talented than the other, but that the often unsung hero (who's defo using a drone in places, as well), the cameraman, is doing one hell of a job, as well! We often forget, in productions, those behind the scenes help in bringing the magic to life. I say this as a former saxophone section leader in a multiple "Best in Show" winning, 120-person marching band. We love our techs!!!!!

They were likely acting, Japanese culture is very confined and disciplined.

Ther are several boys in there too!

@Woody Last Name tactical masterstroke from those lads!

I wonder if there is a HS band in Japan that can challenge this group.

I was thinking to myself, what can you say about a Japanese High School band? Everybody is practically the same height and body build. Nobody has pink hair, tattoos, or body piercings. Their playing and choreography is spot on. Great job and dedication guys and gals. I'm sure all of your parents are glowing with pride. :)

@@superdave8248 I was observing the same thing. Everyone is healthy. No one is over weight. Very professional. You won't see things like that in the US. Everyone is a mess.

Yes and a bunch of kids who play very well. Realistically most of them have not been playing more than like 5 years its nothing.

I usually don't like to be a sheep in the flock, but this time I say baaaaaaa(d)!!! Synchronised and cheerful bunch spreading joy. Congratulations to everyone contributing to this!

I bet they spent at least half of their free time practicing for this parade

@@toyama3307 most japanese students do their hobby after school everyday. But I guess they really put one hell of an effort to perform this.

agreed lol

That’s what I can dedication

😂 That made me laugh!

thats bc they dont try, mot highschoolers in america are horny little shits that are too stupid to talk to get anything cool like this done lol, hell my old school had a mass chlamydia outbreak bc they wouldnt stop fucking randoms

🤣🤣🤣

Japan also has a depressingly high suicide rate because of stuff like this they're pushed past their limits

probably. Most HS band programs are not well funded or motivated despite the good chance of getting a scholarship for the students.

Neng Mua You obviously haven’t “seen it all” if you are calling a DCI group a “band”...

chfunnyone1, All drum corps are marching bands but not all marching bands are drum corps...and that’s not my definition. It’s DCI’s definition itself. But that’s besides the point. Instead of insulting my intelligence, why don’t you show me or direct me to something that wows me like Tachibana, something that I’ve never seen before. I think RU-vid is a great platform for that. I’ve been to many marching band shows in my life, including those big ones in Indianapolis and I’ve spent a lot of time in RU-vid searching for great marching bands and none even comes close to wowing me than Tachibana.

You know Downey one of the band directors of the Blue Devils was one of the ones who directed this band and taught them to play their instruments while dancing. He made every show my band played when I was in high school and told us about this band and how they had to stop going to competitions because they were so good non of the other hand would get anything or win anything

That description is gold

lol truee

all of that and a marching band also..they still march..but they do things i have never seen anyone else do..they are totally amazing!

dun u mean Dear RU-vid Comment section?.... xD

The Pandemic affected everyone. Kyoto Tachibana HS is not the exception. Good news is Tachibana has lifted shut-down since June 1st. Let's enjoy their past performance until they come back, and we all get back the normal life.

Yes, a lot of people are eager to see this Pandemic stop, this performances have put us all in awe , especially me, as my school band took inspiration from Kyoto Tachibana SHS Band, i hope to see Performances like this more, but with my own eyes to see, and not behind a screen.

i was expecting to watch them perform at the Olympics Opening Ceremony.

Sure, watching from Bangkok, enjoying the skill, precision and passion. Full of vitality and super good looking team also and naturally I have found favourites especially the snare drummer who plays with clarity and strength.

They are out of this world D: Watch me split my reed into two 1.75s trying to do that..

そうですね〜。次の期も良いですよ。またこれくらい元気のあるパレードが見たいです。

How about how awesome Monocultures are? Multicultural countries are in ruin while beautiful Monocultures flourish. Too bad the kids are playing the putrid music from the failed state USA.

it's japan quality, what do you expect!

@@zairev3438 Exactly. The crowd are showing respect for the work put in to this (which must be an insane number of hours).

oh... don't forget about the last girl with flute... she has a prosthetic leg.

I want to know how exactly they're able to do so much motion and still be able to play with excellent tone quality. What kind of exercises or practices do they go through to get such comfort that they're able to do all that Also, I'm a Trumpet player if you guys wanted to know

@@arctictropic1147 by deliberate practice, meaning they practice a lot. Of course, as a prestigious school/band, their recruits are already excellent musicians and know what they get into. However as one some of the documentary about this band suggest, most of the new recruits will cry at least once because of the harsh practice. Keep in mind that, this parade was not the longest they had, and didn't even include some of their most physically and musically demanding routines. This channels have some video of them practicing for just their national competition with English sub if you are curious: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-AB6-iT3CkrE.html

@@r01dtox15 are you sure it's a prosthetic

@@keci613 it is

and don't forget the smiling the fact that they represent and stand for a certain name making a statement with their appearance

maybe it's because you don't know the bands here in brazil that play a rythm called "frevo" in carnival... they're not a marching band but are amazing!!!

I don't play musical instruments so kinda curious how much does the trombone and that big drum thing weigh? Bcs they made it seem like it's easy to carry around.

depends, I would assume that most of their smaller instruments are metal, because the sound is very clean and that's hard to achieve with plastic. I would believe, that the bigger instruments are plastic but can't say for sure. Therefore with plastic even trombones weight only up to 3kg but with Metal it increases drastically, depending if all parts are metal and which kind is used. For drums i don't know, but i would assume those don't weight too much.

Simon Engel absolutly right with you ! Congratulations to all of them !

Is that possible if they were playing while others take some rest?(sorry ,I’m not good at english but I’m so curious how they did this.)

Sorry I thinks I was wrong they’re amazing no matter how they did this.(In my opinion ,they didn’t take any rest.)

経験者でないと理解されないですが、リコーダーは息を吹くと誰でも音が出るのに対し、管楽器はまともに音を出す出すことが難しい。本当に尊敬します。

Where is she heard she was on the back but I dont see anything but a bandage

@@keci613 the very last girl in the right I think.

@@sky5954 yeah I found her thanks

Yupp thats her!! Truly inspirational!

Had no idea that was a prosthetic ! I have even more respect for this band now omg !

I hear that the students in charge of the club carry out the selection of songs to be played, the composition of the songs, and the choreography of the dances. The music adviser teacher will help them with the arrangement of the songs they play. It's surprising that students can do so much in regular high school after-school club activities. 演奏曲の選曲、構成、ダンスの振り付け等は、クラブの生徒の係が担当して考えていると聞きます。演奏曲の繋ぎの編曲は音楽顧問の先生が助けているでしょう。通常の高校の放課後のクラブ活動で、ここまで生徒たちができるのは驚きです。

It's important to understand this a high school that specializes in music and the reason kids go to that school is to join the marching band. There really isn't any equivalent in the United States. Major cities in the US will have music and art-focused high schools, but those schools focus on concert music and rarely, if at all, do any marching band work. Marching bands in the US are much more local and only practice during fall for football season. To show my point I'll explain what the US would have to do to match this high school. You would take a similar population area such as Minneapolis-St Paul and form a marching band out of all the best players in the metropolitan area. Those players would then spend multiple hours each day practicing for marching band all year long. That is what it would take to match this band. The US doesn't see this kind of filtering and dedication to practice until a person gets to College or if they perform in Drum Corps International (DCI). Even then, Colleges and DCI only practice marching band on a seasonal basis, so a Japanese High School would practice more than the top marching bands in the US.
